Weekly News

To all of my fans, my internet was down yesterday so I couldn't make a post about their 8-1 win over Toronto. All in all, however, they went 2-3 last week, and were 4-10 on the season before their win today. Jed Lowrie (right) is our Player of the Week after hitting a homer and 5 RBIs over the course of the week, he is now batting .516/2/9 on the season. Jacoby Ellsbury, now batting .200/4/9 is becoming somewhat of a power hitter, leading the team with 4 home runs. The pitcher of the week was Jon Lester, who in two starts allowed 4 runs over 13 innings, earning a win and a loss, and setting himself at 1-1/3.20/22 on the season. Performance of the week was Jed Lowrie on 4/16/11 against the Blue Jays, when he went 3-5 with 2 RBIs and a home run. The game of the week was yesterday against the Blue Jays, as the Sox routed with the Blue Jays by a score of 8-1. This coming week, the Sox beat the Blue Jays 9-1 today, but after that, have 3 games each against the Athletics and Angels.
